I mean clubbing is like a kid's disco, you feel tired at the end of both, and years later you forget what happened. So no real difference? Think the main difference is that you rarely get cakes at this age at the allotted party or hang out area.
Those silly dances you have with a cheap DJ and almost all your classmates except the ones you didn't like and maybe even the ones you didn't like because your parents forced it. Like cheap pop songs being played all the time, cheesy stuff in the 90s and boy bands. And party games like 'Pass the parcel'. Please don't tell me this is just a British thing.
I said: I mean like you wouldn't get the cake if you went down to the pub for your birthday or in a club. When you were younger, you'd always get the cake, candles at the party and blow them out in front of everyone.
Well I guess it helps I don't drink alcohol, no reason to go to a pub for my birthday, means more chance for cake.
You, my friend, need to dance ot the YMCA more. And what about friend's parties? I don't buy any alcohol for myself either, but I still go to the pub and have a Pepsi with friends and last night I went clubbing for a friend's birthday and am now half dead form lack of sleep and I only had water all night. Or do you just say no to those parties?
In my parties I usually do activities that I rarely do. On my last birthday I went with a friend of mine for fishing in Russia. Spoiler
